I see that many people agree with this, given the popularity of Slack and Gitter; however, I myself have found it very hard to have structured discussions there, especially if one cannot be there full-time. The problem of instant communication is that so much of it gets lost. I was never a fan of IRC for that reason. I think Slack is great for day-to-day communication, but not for longer initiatives. Hence, I prefer GitHub issues, milestones, and the mailing list. >> – Split up in two task forces: one for description, one for hypermedia controls > > What’s the difference between these two? Hypermedia controls is everything that's also in HTML: forms, fields, buttons, etc. Concretely: hydra:Link, hydra:IriTemplate, etc. Description is something humans don't need: structure of APIs, labels, etc. Concretely: hydra:ApiDocumentation, supportedClass, possibleStatus, … The former is the domain of HAL etc. Most other API efforts focus exclusively on the latter. Hydra does both. >> – Set deadlines, milestones, deliverables > > I think this is the most important bit and I hope we can organise it > all on GitHub. +1 I would really like a clean slate for this, or perhaps milestones to organize the existing issues.
